A Compassionate and Spiritual Approach to Rediscovering Joy
Using easy-to-follow techniques and practical advice, Philip Martin shows you how to ease depression through the spiritual practice of Zen. His lessons, full of gentle guidance and sensitivity, are a product of his experiences in using Zen practices and wisdom to alleviate his own depression.
Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of depression and recommends a meditation or reflection. With these tools, coping with depression becomes a way to mend the spirit while enriching the soul.

Quotes

    Our mind feels as though it isn’t working right. It is difficult for us to form thoughts, to speak, even to make simple decisions. We feel a mental exhaustion, and our memory often doesn’t seem to work. There is a slowing of our body and mind.

    Intense emotions are present in us: hopelessness, worthlessness, and a profound and unexplained sadness. We feel that we are all alone.

    But before we seek solutions, we must look at the naked feelings themselves. Facing depression lets us look closely, for perhaps the first time, at the deepest problems and feelings in our life
